Author: Rev. R. H. Robinson Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #9 (1894) Meter: 7.7.7.5 Lyrics: 1 Holy Father, cheer our way
With Thy love's perpetual ray:
Grant us ev'ry closing day
Light at evening-time.
2 Holy Saviour, calm our fears
When earth's brightness disappears:
Grant us in our later years
Light at evening-time.
3 Holy Spirit, be Thou nigh
When in mortal pains we lie:
Grant us as we come to die,
Light at evening-time.
4 Holy, blessèd Trinity,
Darkness is not dark to Thee:
Those Thou keepest always see
Light at evening-time.
Amen.
